Andrea N's Profile

Chris

This was our first time using airbnb and after staying at Andrea’s lovely apartment we’ve decided we’ll never again book a hotel during trips to New York. Just right for relaxing, a nice place to call home and very conveniently located (the U.N. is at the end of the block). Andrea was a fantastic and conscientious host with impeccable recommendations for markets and restaurants in the area (we can’t say enough about Padre Figlio). We’ve already recommended her to friends and can not wait to... More »

Liam

Thanks to Andrea for helping to make our first visit to NYC (and first Airbnb experience) so memorable. Her apartment is just as pictured and, if anything, is actually a little larger in real life. It was toasty warm for our winter visit, too, where the coldest overnight temp was -11°C. We found the surrounding streets to be safe and quiet at night allowing for a good night's sleep. The location is ideal and a short 5 minute walk to the excellent Grand Central Terminal. Keep wandering west... More »

Christopher

Superb location, only a couple of blocks from Grand Central. Great view from the lounge of the Crysler Building. Very clean and has everything you need, especially the kitchen - small but has everything! Only negative is the shower takes a bit to get the temp right - but im being really picky!

Claire

The location is awesome! The hostess is very attentive and responds quickly to any questions.I would recommend this place to my friends and family without hesitating. The apt is located 500 yards from the UN building, a quick stroll to Grand Central Station and across from a 24/7 deli/foodstore with very nice employees with good coffee. If you can walk any distance we found it easy to get to Broadway and TIme Square in about 20 minutes. A taxi to Central Park/Madison Ave on the North side... More »

Nancy

Our stay was excellent Andrea could not be nicer and her apartment is charming with a great location. She had recommendations for everything from sight seeing to eating to luggage storage! Would definitely return!

James

Andrea and her apartment are amazing. From check-in to checkout and everything in between- especially the breath-taking view of the Chrysler building from the window. Hunted long and hard for an affordable, clean and stylish room in a good location and this is it!! You'd be a fool NOT to stay here!

Josh

three blocks from the un, on 44th which is an easy 15 minute walk to broadway. a whole apartment for half the price of a hotel room. because of the location there is a police presence which keeps things quiet and safe at night. in a hotel closer to broadway, you need to be above 25 floors to get quiet from the street noises. here, on the 5th floor plus the door on the separate bedroom, it was quiet enough for me to get a good night's sleep each night i was there. small...

Mareike

We had some wonderful days in NYC and we really much enjoyed the japanese restaurants around Andreas apartment. The apartment itself was very clean and it`s nice to have your "own space" even if you are not there really often. It was very nice that Andrea put a little bite in the fridge for us! Thank you!

Christian

Wir hatten insgesamt 5 Nächte Andreas Apartment gebucht und würde es jederzeit wieder tun. Super Lage, nette Annehmlichkeiten im Kühlschrank :-), saubere Zimmer und einfache Abwicklung. Ich freue mich schon jetzt auf meinen nächsten New York-Besuch, das Apartment wird wieder gebucht.

Allan

The whole process was a breeze. We felt really at home in the apartment which is in a really nice and safe area with lots of restaurants and shops nearby, and 10 minutes from Grand Central.

Anke

Sehr schönes und charmantes Appartement. Tolle Lage und Andrea ist eine sehr aufmerksame Gastgeberin!

Benedetta

very quiet, central location, great space, super clean, loved the welcome snacks and drink on arrival!

Erik

Andrea was a perfect host who answered any email very quickly and paid attention to detail. The apartment is well located and I will certainly consider to book it again on my next trip to New York.

Peter

What a perfect week we had in New York, and that is thanks to Andreas lovely, spacious, quite and clean apartment. The apartment is centrally placed with just a short walk to Grand Central Station. Andrea was a wonderful host helping out with whatever we asked about. We will be back and can recommend this apartment to everyone.

Greg

Andrea's apartment is a 5-star airbnb experience! Even more stylish than the photographs indicate, the apartment is superbly fitted (even down to umbrellas a fridge stocked with necessities), secure and so well-located. Andrea is a kind and incredibly considerate host -- it's no wonder that her booking calendar is so full. I'll be recommending her to all friends travelling to New York. Thank you, Andrea!

Kimberly

Andrea's apartment is as lovely as the pictures suggest. We had a great time and really enjoyed our stay. Andrea is a meticulous, attentive host and went out of her way to make us feel at home. The building's doorman was super nice, also. The apartment is in a good location, about an 8 minute walk to grand central. Thanks, Andrea!

Gene

Great space! Love the close proximity to everything. Stayed here 5 days and can honestly say we will be back! Hope to see you again real soon!

Niels

Andreas apartment was just perfect. Centrally placed, spacious and clean. Furthermore it was clear that Andrea really did an effort to make sure our stay was a success. We would recommend Andreas place to anyone who wishes to experience the big apple anytime.

Rhona

This really is a splendid apartment. It is located in a great part of Manhattan and very easy to get around the city from there. The apartment itself is very well decorated and has great amenities. I would recommend Andrea and her apartment any time. In fact, "next time in New York" I hope to stay there again! Andrea is the perfect hostess who even had a welcoming pack for us. Perfect!

Bridget

My husband and I arrived exhausted from 24 hours of flying and it was a pleasure to come into Andrea's beautiful apartment. We stayed for 5 days and really loved the location, a close walk to the main shopping areas. We found the Amish Market on our 2nd day and the food was lovely. It is always a pleasure being in a place where attention to detail means that whatever you imagine you might need is right in front of you. This was a perfect place to begin our exploration of New York. Thanks... More »

Nicolas

The apartment was really lovely and Andrea was a very organized host. The location was very central and convenient: I was able to walk pretty much everywhere I wanted to go, and there are lots of shops/places to eat near by. She even got the weather to cooperate :)

Emma

This was my first visit to New York and it was a joy to stay at Andrea's apartment for a week; it felt like home very quickly! There's heaps of space, a whole storage room to hang and organise clothes, a great little kitchen (the stove and oven worked well), and the location is excellent, close to Grand Central, the New York Public Library, Bryant Park, Times Square and the United Nations. The breakfast nook is especially lovely to sit and eat or just look down the street. A real treat!

James

What a brilliant place to stay! We fell in love with this apartment the moment we arrived - beautifully decorated, very well located (Grand Central short walk away, nice spot in midtown) and Andrea was organised with everything we needed. We used it as our base for a week and couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommended and we hope to return soon.

John

We stayed at Andrea's place from the end of august till early september. First of all we have been welcomed by Wendy, who is a really nice person since there was trafic jam from the airport but she waited for us anyway. Then every two days, Andrea asked us if everything was ok. The place was nicely furnished and located in a well served neighborhood We did not had the chance to meet Andrea but it was as if she was around us, taking care of anything we would have needed. We recommend... More »

Dario

Andrea has a really nice and very confortable appartment for a couple with a little girl as we have (3 years old). In addition, she left some special things when we arrive after the Irene hurricane such as chocolate, milk, etc ... that is a very good point when you arrive late. The area is also excellent and very quiet, with the Central Station so close to the place. We had like to know her personally, but we couldn't do it ... mainly because the place doesn't have telephone. In spite... More »

Mara

We spent ten wonderful days at Andrea's apartment in New York City. The location is perfect, very close to Grand Central. The building is well supervised. The apartment is really gracious, confortable, quiet, bright and well equipped. It is exactly as described in the listing page and shown in the pictures. The wind coming from East river reduces the need of the air conditioned. A special mention: the built in wardrobe and cabinets. Andrea is absolutely hospitable and efficient on contacts.... More »

Lisa

Brilliant apartment in very central location. I had a wonderful stay in the UN apartment which was very spacious and everything you could want for when you are travelling. Andrea was always contactable and available when needed and always willing to help to make my stay more comfortable. Walking distance to all New York has to offer. I would not hesitate to recommend this beautiful apartment in a beautiful building in a beautiful street to anyone. I'll be back.....one day!! Lisa

Simon

I left things a bit late when coming over to NYC for a few days and got in touch with Andrea via airbnb as a couple of the other guys had booked hotel rooms at ridiculous rates. The apartment was great and Andrea had everything organised for us to pick up keys, even had some essentials in the fridge for us! A great apartment in a convenient location. Well worth it!

Bruno

Comme il y a tant a faire à New York, nous n'étions pas si souvent à l'appartement d'Andrea, mais il faisait très bon de s'y retrouver pour se reposer. C'était très confortable pour deux personnes. Bonne vibe. Situé idéalement pour explorer le midtown east, et en fait tout New York puisque c'est assez près de Grand Central (plusieurs lignes de métro). Nous y retournerions! Communications with Andrea were always clear and cordial. And she was always getting back to me quickly. ... More »

Andrea

Andrea was delightful and the apartment is just as wonderful as we thought it would be.

Arja

Ever since our first correspondence I felt Andrea was more like a friend than just a host. We seem to be passionate about similar things - design, architecture, Eames & Saarinen, apartment therapy, photography and the way light hits a building at a certain hour in the morning. So when I finally arrived at the Splendid apartment I felt like I was coming home. New York is a crazy, noisy jungle, and this summer unbelievably hot, for sure. So what you need is a nice, safe and a truly comforting... More »

Jakob

Very friendly and reliable contact with Andrea. Appartment is located at the border of Tudor City, one of the most spectacular parts of NYC in my opinion. Grand Central is within very short walking distance. Central Park can be reached by foot. The area is very safe due to proximity to UN HQ. Andrea's appartment is a beauty to behold. Extremely tasteful and clever furniture, spacious and comfortable. We were provided with several very thoughtful amenities such as fresh fruit on arrival. A... More »

Alissa

Andrea was very accommodating for our last minute reservation. Her apartment was clean, spacious and in a great location. The building was very safe. We would definitely recommend staying here.

Maurizio

Our vacation was wonderful in New York starting with the spectacular apartment of Andrea, much more beautiful than all was described in the website: we confirm with no doubts all the positive comments of all other guests! The apartment is comfortable, clean, stylishly furnished, with attention to detail and equipped with everything you might need. In addition, Andrea was always very helpful, paying attention to all our needs .. we felt completely at home. It has been a pleasure to meet her... More »

David

We found Andrea's "Spendid UN Area Apartmennt" to be delightful--clean, comfortable, well laid out, and well located. There's a great view of the Chrysler Building and it's only a few blocks walk to Grand Central Station. From there you can take the F line or the Times Square-Grand Central Shuttle and be in the theatre district very quickly. The UN neighborhood is very safe, clean, and convenient. We are happy to recommend Andrea's apartment without reservation! She is a most... More »

Elaine and paul

Could not have been better!! First, Andrea: Solely based on our back-and-forth emails as she patiently answered our questions, we liked her even before we arrived. In addition, she went way above and beyond to accommodate a last-minute request. The level of care and attention to the needs and comfort of her guests is beyond anything you would ever expect or even hope for. She has anticipated everything you might need and provided it. And in case you have a special request, she is readily... More »

Loreena

Andrea was very helpful with any and all questions we had, a fantastic host. The apartment was in a fantastic location to get anywhere we wanted to go quickly and was just as cute as the pictures suggest! I would definitely stay here again.

Ivan

Excellent apartment, as advertised. Andrea is a gracious hostess. Location is really good, with car rental around the corner.

Trevor and liz

We stayed in Andrea's apartment in mid-town Manhatten for 6 nights in late May / early June 2011. The apartment was terrific and was equipped with everything we needed. It was so much better than staying in a hotel. It is a roomy apartment with plenty of light and a great atmosphere. It is very well located in Central Manhatten. Andrea is a wonderful host who ensured all our needs were met and was constantly on hand by immediately responding to any queries we had. We would not... More »

Anne

My second time staying at Andrea's place but this time in her Gracious apartment. New York was unbearably hot for May but our stay was made perfect when coming home to this place. I really appreciate Andrea's attention to detail and quite a pleasant surprise was the vase of pretty roses she left as I had mentioned it was a trip for our anniversary. Checking in and out was pain free and even though she was not in the city during our stay she constantly checked to make sure everything was as it... More »

Lisa

We had a great time in New York. Andrea's apartment was really nice and clean. It's in a secure building with friendly doormen and just up from the United Nations building. Close to many restaurants, the excellent Amish Market and a short walk to Grand Central Terminal. We walked everywhere and it only took about 20 minutes to get to Times Square. We had everything we needed for our stay, a comfy bed, a few food supplies and also brochures and travel information. Unfortunately we didn't meet... More »

Heather

Andrea was more than helpful in all ways -easy check in. Apartment is stylish perfect however very comfy and inviting. The bed is comfortable and her huge walk in closet was full of little organizers to help w unpacking. Andrea also was so thoughtful, upon arrival we enjoyed snacks a few cold beers which she ad supplied for us as a welcoming gesture. We did struggle with the door locknand at times required assistance ton unlock the door which was a pain but we discussed this with Andrea and... More »

Melissa

Wonderful stay at Andreas place. Great location with in blocks of Grand Central Station and the best grocery shopping for picnics or cooking around! Andrea was wonderful as was her place. The only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 is because I am highly scent sensitive and the cleaning lady likes to perfume up the linens and things. My fault for not saying something but it definetly made for a difficult wash and sleep! Otherwise it was a delight to lounge in the living room and... More »

Barbro

This was our first experience with the airbnb way of life and in every way it was totally satisfying. First of all it is very nice to know,when visiting a new city or country, that there is someone waiting for you. In our case it was Andrea, a lovely, friendly and very helpful lady who let us know that she was available throughout our stay should we need her. But there was nothing to ask about, everything was supplied in the apartment which is a little gem of a pied-a-terre with a large... More »

Ian

My husband and I and our adult daughter stayed in Andrea's apartment for a week. It was very clean and well equipped. She provided some basic grocery items such as milk, juice, eggs, butter, coffee for the coffee maker, etc. Even some snacks and chocolate. This added extra was much appreciated after a long day of travel. Her apartment was quite spacious with comfortable and stylish furnishings. The area was quiet and safe and easy walking distance to shops, restaurants and transport. Thank... More »

Sarah

I booked Andrea´s place for my boyfriend´s parents these past easter holidays and they were completely pleased with it, especially with the ideal location. Being older and used to traveling in a traditional manner they were a bit sceptic about the whole stay-at-some-strangers-place concept, but Andrea went out of her way to give them all the confidence they needed to try this experience out; they were so happy with the way it worked out that they would gladly stay there again and plan to use...

Ana

My husband and I stayed at Splendid apartment for 7 nights in our first visit to NYC. We had a fabulous time. Andrea’s apartment was so perfect that we could hardly believe our luck! It’s gorgeous, clean, very good located and calm with an amazing view Chrysler Building. The bed is so comfy that you will felt like home. Andrea is very warm and a great host, she'll help you with everything. We certainly will do another visit to New York and there is no better place we could stay than... More »

Deidre

I was in NYC with my 12 year old biece, to see 3 Broadway shows.throught the week. The apartment was very convient to get to Times Square. Grand Central Sation is a short walk, but a cab ride is in the $10 range, so we cabbed it mostly. It never took more than 1 mintute to hail a cab. The apartment was HUGE. Everything was spotless and lots of room to organize all your belongings. Everything we could have needed was provided, coffee maker, wine opener ect. Also I felt the street traffic and... More »

Ania

We've been enchanted with both, the host and the apartment. Very nice place, very good position in the city (depending of what your plans are, of course, but we were visiting and going to major art museums, so it was totally perfect as location). The shops and services around are complete, and quite reasonably priced for Manhattan. The house is Art Deco style, very well preserved, and giving a character to the whole stay. The apartment is cosy and well organised, and you will find every... More »

Patrick

We loved the apartment - it was bigger then we had expected and the location was perfect for our first visit to NYC. The bed was super-comfy and the entire place just felt like home (and the view of the Chrysler Building was incredible too!). Andrea was a great host in making sure things were okay and she was always available if we had any queries. We would definitely look at staying there again on any future visits to New York.

Valerie

We stayed with our 14 year old daughter at Andrea's apartment over the New Year holiday. It was our daughter's first visit to New York...the apartment was perfect: comfortable, beautiful and calm. It was also very close and convenient to Grand Central, Times Square and Rockefeller Center. Andrea provided lots of information about the immediate neighborhood, as well as many things to do in the city. She was warm and welcoming, and checked in with us several times over the course of our... More »

Ashley

Andrea was very helpful. The apartment was perfect. We loved coming back to our apartment after a long day site seeing. Much better than staying in a hotel and perfect for the real New York experience.

Niall

Andrea's apartment is beautifully decorated and an ideal base for exploring New York. It's very generously sized (especially by typical Manhattan standards), comfortable easy to relax in. As per the photos, the kitchen area is kind of small, but it's perfect for preparing breakfast or a small snack during the day. There are many major tourist attractions within a short walk, and you can reach most of the city directly from nearby Grand Central station – however the apartment is located just... More »

Alexandra

This was my first airbnb booking and being a dedicated hotel person, I was a bit hesitant at first. But what can I say? All the good things said here about Andrea and her apartment are simply true. Firstly, it's hard to imagine that there are more caring hosts out there than Andrea. She replied instantly to all our questions, always with our well-being in mind. Secondly, the apartment is very well cut and exceptionally lovely decorated. It has a charming mid-century modern vibe to it, with... More »

Amy

Andrea's apt is beautiful and convenient to midtown and all the sights therein. I would highly recommend this apt and her as a host. She helped us locate a car service and local grocery/ restaurants. She is a generous person who loves NYC and enjoys helping her guests enjoy their trip. How refreshing to find such hospitality!

Iris

Andrea's place is so perfect that I'm a bit reluctant to tell the rest of the world for fear of it being already booked when I want to return;) I felt at home the moment I came into the door, it was comfortable, warm and I loved the design. The combination of Andrea's apartment and New York in autumn was so great that I can't wait to do it again as soon as possible!

Alf

The apartment is very good located, close to everything. The apartment is better than the description provided on Airbnb. It is relaxing to live in a very tastefully decorated accommodation. The hostess made sure we were very well taken care of upon our arrival as well as during our stay

Julien

We had a fantastic time in NY. We spent 6 days in Andrea's appartment. The flat is gorgeous: spacious, quiet, well equiped and well situated. We enjoyed having our breakfeast in front of the fabulous view of the Chrysler Building. We had our laptop and having the wifi, was a real bonus. We went to the Amish Market to buy some foods, it was absolutely amazing (gourmet, quality, varieties...) We tried as well the bar 230 on the 5th Avenue, where we had a drink on the roof terrace in front... More »

Anne

If all rental hosts were like Andrea, I'm sure there'd be a hotel industry crisis! Everything was better than expected- from the location, accommodation, safety and accessibility but more importantly was Andrea's desire to make sure my stay was as comfortable as possible. I had a guest sleep over on two nights and the air bed was so comfy that I used it on my last night there and she was right. I had a dinner party one night and everything I needed was there. I will definitely be back!

Anna

I can't praise Andrea, and Andrea's apartment, enough. She was a pleasure to deal with. Renting on-line is always a risk, but in this case the apartment turned out to be exactly as wonderful and stylish as it looks on the website. Even minor details were perfect - from plenty of hangers in the huge closet to fresh milk, orange juice and yogurt provided for us in the refrigerator. The whole apartment is spotless. We have stayed in many rental houses and hotels and none of them have been... More »

Lynda

This is a comfortable, clean, quiet and stylish apartment in a gem of a building. Andrea herself could not have been more helpful. I would certainly stay here again.

Steven

Staying at Andrea's apartment was an absolutely incredible experience. Beautifully decorated and amazingly spacious, it has everything you need to make yourself feel right at home in NYC. The apartment is centrally located, being within walking distance of Grand Central station, the UN, Times Square, the Empire State Building and Rockefeller Plaza. Andrea is also a fantastic host. Warm, friendly and helpful, she made sure we had everything we needed and gave us some great advice on... More »

Bryan

fantastic experience, Andrea was more than accommodating and helped us get comfortable and situated seamlessly. I couldn't have asked for more from a host and her apartment was immaculate with all of the little touches that made it feel like home. During out time there, a UN meeting was taking place but it didn't interfere with our experience at all, if anything there was an added level of comfort. Andrea also left clean towels, kitchen wear, and beddings that were more than adequate. Highly... More »

Mallory

Andrea's Splendid UN Apartment is absolutely fabulous! The place is decorated beautifully, appointed with most everything you could need from plates and utensils to tea lights, holders, and of course tea! The apartment is incredibly clean and cozy. Could not have been a better experience. 5 minutes to grand central which will take you anywhere. If you're looking for a fantastic meal in the neighborhood try Matisse, amazing ravioli! Thank you for your kindness and your lovely digs! My mother... More »

Rosie

From the moment we arrived to the minute we were leaving Andrea couldnt of helped us enough! We stayed in the apartment for nearly 1month and i have had the best experience i have ever had in New York! my partner and our 3month yr old child came me. Andrea was so accommodating helping with the cot for the baby etc...We have stayed in some 5* hotels in New York and i can honestly say this was a much better experience. The apartment has everything you need and more. We discovered a fantastic... More »

Abigail

Andrea's beautiful apartment was a fabulous home away from home for our first trip to New York- we couldn't have asked for anything better! From the initial correspondence through to our departure we were made so welcome, with fresh goodies in the fridge on our arrival and all the amenities we needed for a smooth trip (including kettle for a decent cup of tea, very important to an English couple abroad!). The apartment is stunning, even better than the photographs. Andrea has a great eye... More »

Sandy

My friend Audrey and I recently stayed at Andrea's beautiful apartment. As soon as we walked in the door we felt so welcomed and at home. From the takeout brochures with her thoughful handwritten recommendations to the bowl of fresh fruit on the table - the apartment was every bit welcoming. The decor only complimented the stunning view of the Chrysler Building. I am already planning my next visit with my little sister and we are definitely going to stay with Andrea again. Thank...

Lisa

My husband and I stayed in Andrea's apartment for the last two weeks of July for our Honeymoon and we couldnt have picked better accomodation. The apartment was lovely and perfect for us, we traveled with our 12 month old daughter and Andrea couldnt have been more accommodating. Our daughter slept in a brand new travel crib in which she was very comfortable and Andrea only charged a small fee for the rental of it. The location was perfect and we were able to walk to almost all of the sights... More »

Chris and john

My wife and I spent a week in Andrea's apartment in mid-July. Most of our friends thought we were crazy to travel to The Big Apple in the dead of summer - but it was no mistake. Yes, it was warm but Andrea's apartment was the perfect refuge. After just one night of air-conditioned bliss with our own kitchen, beutifully decorated living room with a view of the Chrysler Building, very comfortable bed, sheets with the right thread count, food in the fridge, accomodating doorman and Andrea at...

Karine

Hello everyone! If you search a nice place to stay in Manhattan, don't hesitate to book Andrea's Splendid U.N. Area Apt. Our stay there was great. The apartment is really like you can see it on the photos. It's a safe place to stay, clean, cosy and very well situated. It's closed to Grand central (10mn walking), where you have access to most of the subway lines. You live like a New Yorker there! People of the building are sympathic and Andrea is a really nice person. She'll help you with... More »

Great apartment with a central location, very tastefully furnished, spacious and very clean,neat and tidy. Andrea is very easily accessible either over email or by phone and everything is very well organized / set up. Directions on where to find different amenities are clear and easy to follow. If you need anything you can just email/call her and it gets taken care of immediately. Andrea is extremely flexible if you need to extend your stay as long as the apartment is available for the...

Harold

We had a great time in New York and it was due to the warm welcome we had when arriving. There were fresh flowers,fruit and a candy basket. The fridge had some basic essentials. The neighborhood is just great.It is centrally located and easy to get to any destination. It is true that when the windows are open you get the sounds of New York, but the neighbors were quiet. Did I mention that the bed is GREAT. The apartment is just as the photos show them. Andrea is a fan of Ikea. It was great to... More »

Jenny

I stayed in Andrea's Splendid apartment. It was indeed. She has everything you could ask for and more from a standard hotel. Great location for getting everywhere in NY. I would highly recommend this place and this website. Thank you Andrea!

Kimberley

My friend Vanessa and I just returned from six nights in Andrea's Gracious apartment. We decided this time to actually live in NY, and not hotel it - and we could not have asked for a better place. I will concur with everyone else; the apartment is beautiful and clean, the neighbourhood quiet and safe, with everything you need close, and everything you want within walking distance. After a long day on our feet exploring the city or enjoying the nightlife, we always felt like we were... More »

Ivan & eleanor

We stayed in the "Splendid", and had, indeed, a splendid stay. The apartment was immaculate, the location was excellent, and the facilities were great. Short walks to Grand Central, inexpensive restaurants (we recommend the Amish Market on 45th street for ALL types of goodies), and low noise level. A 5 star place to stay in New York.

Karen

My friend and I stayed in Splendid, for 4 days during our 3 week trip to the States, and I can quite honestly say it was one of the best accommodations we had. Andrea and Wendy couldn't have been friendlier or more helpful. The appartment was in a fab location - very safe area and so easy to find our way round NYC. It was very clean and a real home from home. We so looked forward to slumping on the sofa ,watching a bit of tv after spending all day pounding the streets!Andrea and Wendy were... More »

Mark

My wife and I have rented many private homes and apartments over the years and i can tell you that Andrea's Gracious apartment was amazing! The street is very quite for Manhattan (we slept 12 hours striate) with lots of places to eat and buy groceries, especially the Amish market :) Super close to Grand Central Terminal and we found it a very eazy walk to Times Square and Rockefeller Center. If you want to live and see NYC like a local, this is your place! Big, comfortable, bright and... More »

Nicholas

My wife and I stayed in Andrea's "splendid" apartment while in the city for our honeymoon, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience! We were a little nervous at first (some of the other listings on airbnb.com made us feel like we would be invading someone's home), but we knew we had made a good choice as soon as we arrived. The apartment was gorgeous, in a great part of town, and unbelievably clean. As an added bonus, Andrea left fresh flowers and champagne, along with an... More »

William

We stayed in the Splendid appartment with our 12 year old daughter for 6 days and we loved our light and friendly home. It was nice to come back at the end of the day after exploring the city. The neigbourhood is quiet and Grand Central is nearby. Andrea and Wendy were very caring and friendly. It was nice to find drinks and snacks in the house when we arrived. We will certainly recommend the appartment to our friends.

Quyen

We stayed at Andrea's Gracious apt. Andrea's place was clean, cozy, charming, and close to everything. She and Wendy made us felt welcome in this apt. Wendy walked us through the place, showed as where all the light switches were located, utensils, and operating the entertainment system. Andrea called to check up on us throughout our stay. We were too comfortable-we didn't want to leave!!!

Mandy

For our very fist visit to the US, Andrea's personal & warm welcome on our nighttime arrival to NY was fantastic. Along with the stylishly appointed apartment and amazing view of the Chrysler building, Andrea was more than just a 'landlady' and even assisted me to find a doctor when I was sick. Great location, very safe and easy to get around on foot. Recommend it very highly! Had a great holiday & made a friend!

Herman

W have stayed 8 nights in Andrea's nice (email hidden). It is an comfortable, well equiped house, and there is enought space for two persons. The location is excellent for a visit to manhattan. When we arrived we found some snacks and coffee and in the fridge was milk and juice. This gave us the feeling that we were welcome in this house. We will recommand this apartment to frends who are planning to visit NY. We hope to come back for a next visit.

Ruth

We've just got back from four nights in Andrea's beautiful apartment and would recommend it very highly to others. It's extremely comfortable and equipped with everything you might conceivably need. We didn't meet Andrea in person but she was in touch regularly before and during our stay to ensure there were no problems. The area is fairly quiet in the evenings but feels very safe and is very central for sight-seeing during the day. The snacks and breakfast things she provides are also a... More »

Tineke

We stayed in the splendid apartment for 4 nights, and it was really fantastic. The apartment is very good located, near Grand Central, clear, and very nice decorated. You feel home right the way. Andrea was very helpfull and I recommend this place to everybody.We loved our stay.

Hm

We stayed 3 nights in March at Andrea's "Splendid" aprt and we loved it. She was so kind in accommodating our early morning arrival and had snacks ready in the fridge for us. The aprt itself is very conveniently located and is beautifully decorated, with very homey touches. Although we didn't get to meet Andrea herself, we were in touch regularly and she was always responsive to us. Andrea: Thanks for making us feel so welcome in NYC!

We found a home from home, really enjoyed our stay in the stylish comfortable centrally located Gracious Apt. Close to public transport, good shops and restaurants and helful doorman. We will definetely recommend it to friends and rent this place again when we visit New York:)

We had a great time at Andrea's new place. The apartment had a good location, everything we needed. We were traveling with our 10 month old baby and Andrea was very helpful and checked out things for us before we arrived.

My partner and I stayed in Andrea's new apartment (the "Splendid") in Feb. It was absolutely perfect! Spacious, very comfortable, and in a good location, with a view of the Chrysler building! Andrea is gay friendly and made us feel very at home. A perfect host for us. Would definitely stay there again.

Stayed with Andrea in Feb and just loved it. The apt is in a great location, is really spacious and has absolutely everything you could ever need - a real home from home. Andrea is a fantastic host managing a perfect balance of being available to assist you without being overly intrusive. Loved the place and hope to be back in the future. Excellent apt and excellent host!

My girlfriend and I stayed at Andrea's place in the middle of January. Her hosting skills are superb. Everything you could imagine was there for you to use (from an iron to a coffee maker and a martini shaker to a deck of cards). I love her style in decorating. You are so close to all of Manhattan's desireable attractions. I will definately stay again!

We went to New York this past December and we do not regret renting this apartment for the week we were there. It was beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The best part of it all was that it was in a safe & quiet neigbourhood and very,very close to Times Square,Bryant Park,Grand Central Station and great stores like Zara and H&M. We were charmed by it completely and we even had a little accident and Andrea was so nice about it. I higly recommend this place!

We spent four days during the week of Christmas in Andrea's place and had a wonderful time. We were met by one of Andrea's friends who showed us around the apartment and made herself available by phone, should we need assistance. The apartment was walking distance to so many wonderful NYC sights and just a few short blocks to Grand Central Station, where we were able to catch the subway to all of NYC's best places as well as just sit with a glass of wine and watch the hustle and bustle of...

Andrea was more than helpful in getting us settled in. Everything in the Apartment was great, we enjoyed our stay immensely and will be highly recommended to friends and family who will be visiting New York this year!

Great Experience, Just Excellent!!! I came to NYC for three days with my son in Dec. From the first moment it felt like home. We came on a rainy morning, after a long flight and there was Andrea waiting for us with a big smile and even offered us a nice breasfast(!) Such a good start! Then the apartment, cosy, spacious, beautifully designed, looking even better than the pictures on the website, with everything that one would possibly need. Very comfortable bed in the bedroom and a... More »

This is a delayed review of Andreas place due to travelling without the Internet but here goes. We visited New York at the start of December and stayed in Andreas place. What a magical apartment to have at a magical time of year. Andreas place was warm, cosy and very well styled. Although roomy everything felt well positioned and homely. So much so that me and my girlfriend have thought about moving over to New York at some point. Andrea kept in touch via email the whole time... More »

Do not look further. Andrea's place is cozy, tastefully-decorated, furnished with everything you could possibly need, and close to many of the best sights in NYC. Andrea is a generous and thoughtful host who *truly* wants you to have a pleasant experience. She extended herself to us in many different ways: leaving food for our breakfasts, allowing us to check out late, checking with us regularly, providing recommendations for restaurants, and the list goes on. At times we found ourselves... More »

We cannot express enough how wonderful our stay in Andrea's apartment was. It was one of the highlights of our New York trip. From the first contact, Andrea was extraordinarily generous. She was flexible in arrangements and completely clear in all communications, putting our minds immediately at ease. Andrea was the perfect host, meeting us and showing everything in the apartment in detail. She had even provided some breakfast and snacks for us. Over the course of our stay she emailed... More »

I spent close to two weeks at Andrea's apartment and all I can say is that it's fantastic. If its possible to rate 6 out of 5 stars for it, I would. Amenities are aplenty. There's a bodega diagonally opposite it, a cleaner's right across, two blocks down (that' a 5 minute brisk walk) is where Rachel Ray's studio is at (if you're into that). Its close to Grand Central, so the subways are in easy reach, whether you want to go uptown or downtown and the United Nations is just down the... More »
